"Never Lived at All Lyrics"
Beckys playing a piece by gershwin on her old piano
Shes been playing since her childhood, "too long to recall..."
But the chords that fall from her fingertips, are the same
She played when she could barely sit still, back in `69,
When the keys made her hands look small
And she built her dream around symphonies and concertos
Around traveling the country, and playing the music halls
Four kids later the dreams been reduced to "what-if" scenarios
But hey, to never dream is to have never lived at all

gns the cover page, uncorks the bottle with the dusty labelIt keeps me awake, it grows in my head My body aches, my feelings are dead I turn my eyes inside out Gaze into the hell I created, Burned-Out! Lost everything I had, for a word My own presence makes me disturbed I
Pours his wife a glass, she says "baby, bring the bottle to bed"
At 6 am hes out fighting the cars on the freeway
And fighting his manuscript, has he written his own downfall?
But hell embrace rejection, hell kiss the seal of each envelope
Better to live in hope than to never have lived at all
To never live at all
Never live at all
